Reply #42: They have the luxury of fear [View All]

People who are actually impoverished and oppressed have little time to concern themselves with such off-the-wall theories, and no money to travel or pay the admission to these events. They spend their time trying to find work and wondering where their next lunch is coming from. Having spent some time there, I can assure you that this is the case.

It takes some measure of luxury to sit on your butt all day listening to Rush and Fox to get your head filled with these notions. It takes an even greater measure of luxury to have a dependable car to travel in and the cash to waste on admission to a Palin event. These people are not oppressed, they just like to think they are. The oppressed and impovershed among us have no time or money to waste on a collection of weapons and militia regalia. This is a hobby of the faux oppressed middle class. They may be the folks who aren't quite "keeping up with the Joneses", but they all look pretty well fed. The vast majority (nearly all) of folks I know currently in this situation are caucasian. I have been to "The Villages".
